Nutrition and Hydration in the Heat

Today's waffle podcast is all about training and competing in the heat! Firstly, we cover the physiology of training or competing in the heat. Without understanding what the body is doing, it becomes harder to understand what we can do with our food to combat the heat and gain better adaptations from it. These include: * Hydration strategies * Electrolyte replacement * Cooling strategies * Recovery * And much much more  You will leave this podcast with really easy actionable ideas for the next time you're competing in hot events. As you can imagine, there ARE some risks associated with heat-based training so we want to make sure you go into these events in the best state to look after your health and get everything you can out of your performance.
